This is very interesting, it is an area that is part of the French concession, but it is where Mao and his mates, nutted out the Chinese Communist Ideals, which started off a whole new direction for the country. There is no photography allowed. You see a history in photos, wax figures of everyone participating, the actual room and table... More

I was surprised about how many english description signs. Nice history of the Communist Party from the Chinese point of view (naturally). While you have to get a ticket, the cost is free.

This building, constructed after China's cultural revolution has an entrance fee to observe a self proclaimed "birthplace" of the CCP. Although quite new, tacky & lacking in quality.

We must not forget that in the name of communism over 60 million Chinese got killed. Forget about English translation or any meaningful comments or... More

As you explore Shanghai and get to understand the importance of Shanghai and for the founders of the Shanghai communist party, it is locations like this that share pictures and documents associated with the founding of the party for people to better understand history.
